'The School of Australian Naturalist Landscape Design: History, Philosophy and Practice' by Sam Cox

I have been invited to deliver a lecture and conduct a workshop on Australian Naturalist Landscape Design by The Garden Design Society of New Zealand in September.This is a fantastic opportunity for an exchange of ideas between the landscape design practices of Australia and New Zealand with a focus on the history of natural design and a sense of place. The Society has offered to show me around some of NZ's finest gardens and I look forward to seeing how they are inspired by the granduer of their natural environment. Some of the society members visited a couple of our gardens in recent years during the Garden Design Festival in Melbourne and were really interested in the naturalist style we practice in. See the flyer (opposite) for further details.
